Did you mean Hair Follicle Culture?

Glossary Hair Follicle Culture

laboratory technique growing hair follicles outside the body

Hair Follicle Culture, also known as Follicle Culturing, is a laboratory technique where hair follicles are extracted from the scalp and grown in a controlled environment outside the body. This method is used for studying hair growth, testing the effects of drugs or treatments on hair follicles, and researching conditions like alopecia.

research Pigmentation Effect of Rice Bran Extract in Hair Follicle-Like Tissue and Organ Culture Models

6 citations , October 2019 in “Jo'jig gonghag gwa jaesaeng uihag/Tissue engineering and regenerative medicine”

This study found that rice bran ash extract enhanced melanin biosynthesis-related protein expression in a 3D hair follicle-like tissue model and hair follicle organ culture, suggesting potential for future research in melanogenesis.

research Cyclosporine A stimulated hair growth from mouse vibrissae follicles in an organ culture model

1 citations , January 2012 in “生物医学研究杂志：英文版”

This study found that cyclosporine A stimulates hair growth in a mouse model by preventing catagen development and increasing expression of certain growth factors.

research Cyclosporine A stimulated hair growth from mouse vibrissae follicles in an organ culture model

11 citations , September 2012 in “Journal of Nanjing Medical University”

In this study, cyclosporine A stimulated hair growth in mouse vibrissae organ culture by promoting matrix cell proliferation and altering growth factor expression.

research Using bioprinting and spheroid culture to create a skin model with sweat glands and hair follicles

65 citations , January 2021 in “Burns & Trauma”

This study developed an in vitro model revealing that hair follicle spheroids enhanced both sweat gland and hair follicle differentiation within bioprinted scaffolds, while microenvironmental cues supported persistent regeneration.

research Ability to culture dermal papilla cells from red deer (Cervus elaphus) hair follicles with differing hormonal responses in vivo offers a new model for studying the control of hair follicle biology

16 citations , August 1996 in “The journal of experimental zoology/Journal of experimental zoology”

This study suggests that red deer stags provide a novel model for investigating hormonal regulation of hair growth due to the different cell growth rates in hair follicles during breeding and nonbreeding seasons.

community Baldness Breakthrough: microRNA Stimulates Hair Growth in Aging Follicles

316 upvotes 3 years ago

miR-205, a tiny RNA, can stimulate hair growth by softening aging hair follicle stem cells in mice. Future tests aim to see if this can work in humans.

community You will lose hair if your prostaglandins aren't in balance

56 upvotes 1 year ago

Prostaglandin balance affects hair loss, particularly in conditions like Lichen Planopilaris, where an imbalance can lead to hair follicle damage. Treatments mentioned include prostaglandin analogs and Pioglitazone HCL, with a focus on maintaining prostaglandin equilibrium for potential hair regrowth.

community Surprisingly thorough study on He-Shou-Wu/Fo Ti

13 upvotes 3 years ago

He Shou Wu (Fo Ti) extract was found to prolong the hair growth phase, inhibit 5-alpha-reductase (like finasteride), reduce androgen receptors, and increase growth factors, potentially outperforming minoxidil in recovering hair follicle size after DHT exposure. Two compounds, emodin and TSG, are identified as responsible for these effects and warrant further investigation.

community Certified old, at 51, balding since 25, the resurrection!

in Progress Pictures 439 upvotes 1 year ago

A 51-year-old shared progress on hair regrowth using topical Minoxidil and Finasteride over four months, noting significant improvement and plans for future hair transplants. The user emphasized the benefits of modern treatments and societal changes in attitudes towards hair loss.

community Hair loss mental effect is so bad

in Satire 177 upvotes 1 year ago

Hair loss negatively affects mental health, causing anxiety and depression. Minoxidil and finasteride are discussed as treatments, but side effects and mental health concerns remain.

learn Caffeine

Does caffeine stimulate hair growth or only slow hair loss? Caffeine stimulates hair follicles in laboratory cultures, and one open-label trial in 210 men found a 0.2% caffeine topical non-inferior to minoxidil 5% on an anagen-ratio endpoint; there is no placebo-controlled evidence that it regrows hair, and none at all in alopecia areata or telogen effluvium.

learn KY19382

How is KY19382 applied—topically or orally—for hair growth treatment? In every published study KY19382 has been applied topically, never taken orally; the work is preclinical (cells, cultured follicles and mice) and no human trial results have been published.

learn Niacinamide

How does Niacinamide support the hair follicle’s nutrition? Niacinamide nourishes hair follicles by boosting energy production and supporting antioxidant defenses.

learn oleic acid

How does Oleic Acid support hair follicle strength and growth? Oleic acid strengthens hair follicles by enhancing hydration and reducing inflammation.
